The repository of contao-multicolumnwizard-bundle was moved to contao-community-alliance. We plan to support this version with bugfixes until the new version from the CCA is released.

MultiColumnWizard

The MultiColumnWizard is a widget for mapping several fields of the same and/or different type (input type) in a DCA element. The individual fields of the MCW are listed column by column in the backend and can be extended row by row as a group. The arrangement corresponds to a multidimensional array of the form array[rows][fields], which is stored in the database as a serialized array. The widget is almost identical to MultiTextWizard or MultiSelectWizard. It extends the functionality of any widget.

More information can be found in the contao wiki http://de.contaowiki.org/MultiColumnWizard

Install

The Multicolumnwizard is usually installed via an extension. If it is necessary to install Multicolumnwizard yourself, please use the console with the composer via the call

or

Developers should add the Multicolumnwizard to their composer.json as a dependent package.

Other parameters

From version 3.6.5:

The Symfony translator can be used to translate the label and description. To do this, set the useTranslator key to true.

<?php
$GLOBALS['TL_DCA']['tl_theme']['fields']['anything'] = [
//...
    'inputType' => 'multiColumnWizard',
    'eval'      => [
        'useTranslator' => true,
// ...
    ],
];
?>

The descriptions of the columns are displayed in the column header as a tooltip next to the icon 🛈 - the character or text can be changed in the language file.
